It’s so inspiring to read through everyone’s goals and reviews of 2025’s achievements!
I will structure mine like @monace, as I was also thinking of partial timely-based study projects that I find myself identifying with the challenges category (will keep this post updated).
Objectives
- Reading: Continue reading regularly. If one book or paragraph does not meet the mood just switch and continue later. Read more books from L34 and higher to challenge myself.
- Speaking: Start practicing speaking more pro-active. Some day I want to be able to give presentations or speeches in Japanese. So I need to start with some steps towards that overall goal.
- Grammar: I feel I need more in-depth grammar knowledge to understand the nuances in written or spoken sentences, as I get more interested in the small nuances and differences between grammatical patterns like why was A used and not B?
Challenges
- 3 x 16-day challenge of daily speaking for 30 mins straight like speech practice
Tasks
- Read the same or more than 2025, meaning >= 9 books and >= 2738 pages)
- Finish マリア様がみてる | L30 series
- Learn 5 speeches from YT and practice those. Record each
I will work on more concrete goals and talk about them in Mako's Learning Log 🦋. Like I was trying to group them by season (winter, spring, summer, autumn) and have some dedicated tasks then I want to achieve in that time frame.
